AIP - CAYMAN ISLANDS GEN 3.1-2
CIVIL AVIATION AUTHORITY 28 JAN 2021
AMDT 01/2021
3. Aeronautical Publication
3.1 The aeronautical information is provided in the form of the Integrated Aeronautical Information
Package (IAIP) consisting of the following elements:
— Aeronautical Information Publication (AIP);
— AIP Amendments (AIP AMDT);
— AIP Supplement to the AIP (AIP SUP)
— NOTAM and limited Pre-Flight Information Bulletins (PIB)
— Checklists and list of valid NOTAM
AIP, AIP AMDT, AIP SUP AND AIC are available on the Cayman Islands Airport Authority website. NOTAM
are issued via the Aeronautical Fixed Telecommunication Network (AFTN)/Aeronautical Message Handling
System (AMHS) and the related monthly checklists are issued via the email by Jamaica NOTAM Office (NOF)
while limited PIB are made available on request at the aerodrome AIS units.
3.2 Aeronautical Information Publication (AIP)
The AIP is the basic aviation document intended primarily to satisfy international requirements for the exchange
of permanent aeronautical information and long duration temporary changes essential for air navigation.
The Cayman Islands AIP is published in 1 volume.
The AIP is published in loose-leaf form in English only for use in international and domestic operations, whether
the flight is a commercial or a private one.
3.3 Amendment service to the AIP (AIP AMDT)
Amendments to the AIP are made by means of replacement sheets. Two types of AIP AMDT are produced:
— Regular AIP Amendment (AIP AMDT), issued on the first day of each month and identified by a light blue
cover sheet, incorporates permanent changes into the AIP on the indicated publication date; and
— AIRAC AIP Amendment (AIRAC AIP AMDT), issued in accordance with the AIRAC system and identified
by a pink cover sheet and the acronym — AIRAC, incorporates operationally significant permanent changes into
the AIP on the indicated AIRAC effective date.
A brief description of the subjects affected by the amendment is given on the AIP Amendment cover sheet. New
information included on the reprinted AIP pages is annotated or identified by a vertical line in the left margin (or immediately to the left) of the change/addition.
Each AIP page and each AIP replacement page introduced by an amendment, including the amendment cover
sheet, are dated. The date consists of the day, month (by name) and year of the publication date (regular AIP
AMDT) or of the AIRAC effective date (AIRAC AIP AMDT) of the information. Each AIP
cover sheet includes references to the serial number of those elements, if any, of the Integrated Aeronautical
Information Package which have been incorporated in the AIP by the amendment and are consequently cancelled.
Each AIP AMDT and each AIRAC AIP AMDT are allocated separate serial numbers which are consecutive and
based on the calendar year. The year, indicated by two digits is a part of the serial number of the amendment, e.g.
AIP AMDT 1/96; AIRAC AIP AMDT 1/96.
A checklist of AIP pages containing page number/chart title and the publication or effective date (day, month by
name and year) of the information is reissued with each amendment and is an integral part of the AIP.

AMDT 01/2021
3.4 Supplement to the AIP (AIP SUP)
Temporary changes of long duration (three months and longer) and information of short duration which consists of
extensive text and/or graphics, supplementing the permanent information contained in the AIP, are published as
AIP Supplements (AIP SUP). Operationally significant temporary changes to the AIP are published in accordance
with the AIRAC system and its established effective dates and are identified clearly by the acronym AIRAC AIP
SUP. AIP Supplements are separated by information subject (General—GEN, En-route—ENR and
Aerodromes—AD) and are placed accordingly at the beginning of each AIP Part. Supplements are published on
yellow paper to be conspicuous and to stand out from the rest of the AIP. Each AIP Supplement (regular or
AIRAC) is allocated a serial number which is consecutive and based on the calendar year. i.e. AIP SUP 1/96;
AIRAC AIP SUP 1/96. AIP Supplements are separated by information subject (General—GEN, En-route—ENR
and Aerodromes—AD) and are placed accordingly at the beginning of each AIP Part. Supplements are published
on yellow paper to be conspicuous and to stand out from the rest of the AIP. Each AIP Supplement (regular or AIRAC) is allocated a serial number which is consecutive and based on the calendar year. i.e. AIP SUP 1/96;
AIRAC AIP SUP 1/96.
An AIP Supplement is kept in the AIP as long as all or some of its contents remain valid. The period of validity of
the information contained in the AIP Supplement will normally be given in the supplement itself. Alternatively,
NOTAM may be used to indicate changes to the period of validity or cancellation of the supplement.
The checklist of AIP Supplements currently in force is issued in the monthly printed plain-language summary of
NOTAM in force.
3.5 NOTAM and Pre-flight Information Bulletins (PIB)
NOTAM contain information concerning the establishment, condition or change in any aeronautical facility,
service, procedure or hazard, the timely knowledge of which is essential for personnel concerned with flight
operations. The text of each NOTAM contains the information in the order shown in the ICAO NOTAM Format
and is composed of the significant uniform abbreviated phraseology assigned to the ICAO NOTAM Code
complemented by ICAO abbreviations, indicators, identifiers, designators, call signs, frequencies, figures and plain
language. NOTAMs are originated by the Kingston International NOTAM Office (NOF) and issued for the
Cayman Islands TMA and are distributed in series identified by the letter A.
Series A. General rules, en-route navigation and communications facilities, airspace restrictions and activities
taking place below FL 245 and information concerning major international aerodromes.
3.6 Aeronautical Information Circulars (AIC)
The Aeronautical Information Circulars (AIC) contain information on the long-term forecast of any major change
in legislation, regulations, procedures or facilities; information of a purely explanatory or advisory nature liable to
affect flight safety; and information or notification of an explanatory or advisory nature concerning technical,
legislative or purely administrative matters.
Each AIC is numbered consecutively on a calendar year basis. The year, indicated by two digits, is a part of the
serial number of the AIC, e.g. AIC 1/96. A checklist of AIC currently in force is issued as an AIC twice a year.

3.7 Checklist and summary of NOTAM
A checklist of valid NOTAM is issued monthly via email to all recipients of the Integrated Aeronautical Package.
It contains a plain language presentation of the NOTAM and information about the number of the latest issued
AIRAC AIP AMDT, AIP SUP and AIC as well as the numbers of the elements issued under the AIRAC that will
become effective or, if none, the NIL AIRAC notification.
3.8 Sale of publications
The said publication is available free of cost on the Cayman Islands Airports Authority website at
www.caymanairports.com .
4. AIRAC System
4.1 In order to control and regulate the operationally significant changes requiring amendments to charts, route-
manuals etc., such changes, whenever possible, will be issued on predetermined dates according to the AIRAC
SYSTEM. This type of information will be published as an AIRAC AIP AMDT or an AIRAC AIP SUP. If an
AIRAC AMDT or SUP cannot be produced due to lack of time, a NOTAM clearly marked AIRAC will be issued.
Such NOTAM will immediately be followed by an AMDT or SUP.
4.2 The table below indicates AIRAC effective dates for the coming years. AIRAC information will be issued so
that the information will be received by the user not later than 28 days, and for major changes not later than 56
days, before the effective date. At AIRAC effective date, a trigger NOTAM will be issued given a brief
description of the contents, effective date and reference number of the AIRAC AIP AMDT or AIRAC AIP SUP that will become effective on that date. Trigger NOTAM will remain in force as a reminder in the PIB until the
new checklist/summary is issued.
If no information was submitted for publication at the AIRAC date, a NIL notification will be issued by NOTAM
not later than one AIRAC cycle before the AIRAC effective date concerned.

- from the runway to the aircraft stand;
It also provides essential operational information at the aerodrome.
b) Aerodrome Obstacle Chart - Type A (operating limitations). This chart contains detailed information on
obstacles in the take-off flight path areas of aerodromes. It is shown in plan and profile view. This obstacle
information in combination with an Obstacle Chart - ICAO Type C, provides the data necessary to enable an
operator to comply with the operating limitations of ICA0 Annex 6, Parts I and II, Chapter 5.
The aeronautical data include all aerodromes, prohibited, restricted and danger areas and the air traffic
services system in detail. The chart provides the flight crew with information that will facilitate navigation
along ATS routes in compliance with air traffic services procedures.
c) Standard Departure Chart - Instrument (SID) ICAO. This chart is produced whenever a standard departure route - instrument has been established and cannot be shown with sufficient clarity on the
Area Chart - ICAO.
The aeronautical data shown include the aerodrome of departure, aerodrome(s) which affect the
designated standard departure route instrument, prohibited, restricted and danger areas and the air
traffic services system. This chart provides the flight crew with information that will enable them to
comply with the designated standard departure route -instrument from the takeoff phase to the en-route
phase.
d) Standard Arrival Chart - Instrument (STAR) ICAO. This chart is produced whenever a standard arrival
route -instrument has been established and cannot be shown with sufficient clarity on the Area Chart –
ICAO.
The aeronautical data shown include the aerodrome of landing, aerodrome(s) which affect the
designated standard arrival route - instrument, prohibited, restricted and danger areas and the air traffic
services system. 'Ibis chart provides the flight crew with information that will enable them to comply
with the designated standard arrival route -instrument from the en-route phase to the approach phase.
e) Instrument Approach Chart - ICAO. This chart is produced for all aerodromes used by civil aviation
where instrument approach procedures have been established. A separate Instrument Approach Chart –
ICAO has been provided for each approach procedure.
The aeronautical data shown include information on aerodromes, prohibited, restricted and danger areas, radio communication facilities and navigation aids, minimum sector altitude, procedure track

2.2 Delay, Incidental changes and cancellations of RPL
2.2.1 When a specific flight is likely to encounter a delay of one hour or more in excess of the departure time
stated in the RPL, the AIS unit serving the departure aerodrome shall be notified immediately. Delays relating to
departures from Owen Roberts or Charles Kirkconnell Intl. Shall be notified to the relevant AIS unit listed in 1.3
above.
2.2.2 Incidental changes to and cancellations of RPL relating to departures from Owen Roberts or Charles
Kirkconnell Intl. Shall be notified as early as possible and not later than 30 minutes before departure to the
appropriate Aeronautical Information Service address listed in 1.3 above.
Note: Failure to comply with this procedure may result in the automatic cancellation of the RPL for that specific flight at one or more of the ATS units concerned.
2. Changes to the submitted flight plan
3.1 All changes to a flight plan submitted for an IFR flight or a controlled VFR flight and significant changes
to a flight plan submitted for an uncontrolled VFR flight shall be reported as soon as possible to the appropriate
ATS unit. In the event of a delay in departure of 30 minutes or more for a flight for which a flight plan has been
submitted, the flight plan shall be amended or a new flight plan shall be submitted after the old plan has been
cancelled.
Note 1.— If a delay in departure of a controlled flight is not properly reported, the relevant flight plan data may no longer be readily available to the appropriate ATS unit when a clearance is ultimately requested,
which will consequently result in extra delay for the flight.
Note 2.— If a delay in departure (or cancellation) of an uncontrolled VFR flight is not properly reported,
alerting or search and rescue action may be unnecessarily initiated when the flight fails to arrive at the destination
aerodrome within 30 minutes after its current ETA.
3.2 Whenever a flight, for which a flight plan has been submitted, is cancelled, the appropriate AIS unit shall
be informed immediately.
3.3 Changes to a current flight plan for a controlled flight during flight shall be reported or requested, subject
to the provisions in ICAO Annex 2, 3.6.2. (Adherence to flight plan). Significant changes to a flight plan for an uncontrolled VFR flight include changes in endurance or in the total number of persons on board and changes in
time estimates of 30 minutes or more.
3.4 Arrival report (closing a flight plan)
3.4.1 A report of arrival shall be made at the earliest possible moment after landing to the airport office of the
arrival aerodrome by any flight for which a flight plan has been submitted except when the arrival has been
acknowledged by the local ATS unit. After landing at an aerodrome which is not the destination aerodrome
(diversionary landing), the local ATS unit shall be specifically informed accordingly. In the absence of a local
ATS unit at the aerodrome of diversionary landing, the pilot is responsible for passing the arrival report to the
destination aerodrome.
